This year all schools in South Carolina will administer statewide testing for SC Ready and SC PASS to third, fourth and fifth graders online as opposed to paper/pencil tests, other than for students who qualify for paper/pencil testing as indicated on their IEP. The testing window is from April 20th to June 2nd. Due to planning for technological resources for testing as well as finding the dates that best work for our students, our schedule for statewide testing at East End is listed below. The state has requested that third grade be tested first in each school so that feedback can be received in time to review for a student’s progress in comparison to the South Carolina Read to Succeed legislation.

We ask that you pay close attention to the testing schedule and notice that it covers a three-week period with each grade level testing on a different week. Please work with your children to make sure they get rest, have a healthy breakfast and arrive to school on time so that they are ready for testing each day Pre-arranged absence request during testing will not be approved.

If you have any questions please do not hesitate to call Kay Perry, school testing coordinator and assistant principal, at 397-1712
